According to Ring, Patrick on 10/4/2006 3:07 PM:
> I am having a problem with the "source" command in bash (3.1-9).
> When I try to source a file with aliases in it, the aliases get garbled
> so that they don't work.  When I type "alias" on the command line, I can
> see that it is incorrect.  Other commands also do not work, usually
> giving an error like "command not found".
> Example:
> Put the line
>    alias ls='ls -F'
> in a file called trysrc.  Inside bash, cd to the directory and type
>    source trysrc

Then type 'd2u trysrc' and try again.  I suspect line endings here; read
the release announcement.
